Common library providing a lightweight configuration system
MidnightLib is a lightweight library that provides common utils and a configuration system for mods.
Mod developers are allowed and encouraged to bundle it with their mods via Jar-in-Jar.
Every feature can be toggled in the library's own config screen/file.

ABOUT THIS LISTING
This page describes MidnightLib by Motschen. The description and screenshots are the author's own, imported from their listing on Modrinth on 3 October 2026: https://modrinth.com/mod/midnightlib
Mythiq.net hosts no files for it. The download button goes straight to the release file on cdn.modrinth.com, so you are downloading from the author's own host, not from a copy of ours.
The download count, rating and comments on this page start at zero and count Mythiq.net only. The source's own figures are not copied here — they measure a different site, and a number that cannot be checked against our own ledger is not worth printing.

Requirements
Game version
26.3
MOD LOADER
This release is built for Neoforge. A mod built for one loader will not load under another — Fabric mods do not run on Forge, and vice versa.
GAME VERSION
Built for Minecraft 26.3. Minecraft mods are tied to an exact version: a 1.21.4 build will refuse to load on 1.21.5.
THIS IS A LIBRARY
On its own it adds nothing you can see. It is here because other mods require it, and installing it is usually something another mod asked you to do.
DEPENDENCIES
Check the author's listing for required libraries before you start the game — a missing dependency shows up as a crash on launch, not as a warning.
Installation
1. Install Neoforge for the Minecraft version you play, if you have not already.
2. Download the .jar with the button on this page. Do not unzip it — a mod jar is installed as it is.
4. Launch the game with the Neoforge profile selected.
ON A SERVER
Anything that changes world generation or gameplay has to be installed on the server as well as on every client. Client-side visual and interface mods do not.
UPDATING
Replace the old .jar rather than adding the new one beside it. Two versions of the same mod in the folder is a crash on launch.
This release downloads from cdn.modrinth.com, not from us, so
there is no checksum to compare against. Scan the archive before you unpack it.
